fastest way to interpolate

2020-05-28 Thread Federico 'Larroca' La Rocca
Hi everyone, I've finally been testing gr-tempest with some SDR hardware and the following problem arised: sampling correction takes way too much CPU. In my (relatively new) laptop I get dropped samples at a sampling rate above 15 MSps. I'm currently using the Fractional Resampler block, and I

Frederico I am not certain about this but could it be the USB bus. I know with my Fairwaves XTRX which connects through 2x miniPCI-e the transfer rate is close to 8Gbps, and the SDR can do 120Msps is SISO mode Martin Spears Chief Technical Officer Ingenious Countermeasures Technologies Inc.

Hi Martin, Thanks for the reply. I thought the same, and tested the system by using a corrected (by hand) sampling rate on the USRP (and disabling the resampling block): I get about 40-50 MSps with virtually no dropped samples. That's why I thought about correcting the sampling rate through

It is indeed my belief that there is no point in running a graphical user interface on an embedded system, much less a windowing system. If an embedded board is supposed to interact with a user, a Qt5 or SDL dedicated interface will be much lighter and efficient than a X-Window server and a window

Hi Glen - try typing    apt list --installed | grep xorg to check if it's installed. It could be a /boot/boot.ini thing. I had odroid running debian 8  where I had to install X11 by hand. I enclosed a tar file with a script for install X11 which should work well enough to get you going.

Hi Thanks for your help. I’ve written the image to an SDCARD and the PI4 boots to the command line prompt. The password is accepted and I’ve looked around. Gnuradio seems to be installed, but not the xwindow system. How do you use gnuradio-companion etc? I could not find “xstartup” or some

This is just a guess, but it's probably intended to be remotely accessed with ssh. Try: ssh -Y username@host The -Y enables X11 forwarding. After you log in to the remote host, try: gnuradio-companion Ron On 5/28/20 18:33, Glen Langston wrote: Hi Thanks for your help. I’ve written the
